They served a delicious squash butter with bread as an appetizer. This is such a wonderful spread for bread, and you won't believe how easy it is to make! Preparation Time: 1 minuteCooking Time: 1 hourServings: variable1 butternut squash1/8 cup vegetable brothfreshly ground pepper saltPreheat oven to 350 degrees.Prick the squash several times with a fork, then place in the oven, either directly on the rack or on a baking sheet. Bake until tender when pierced with a fork, about 1 hour. (It will start looking a bit shriveled at this point.) Remove from oven and let cool. Cut in half and remove the seeds and stringy portion. Scoop out the flesh from the squash into a food processor, discarding the skin. Add 1/8 cup of vegetable broth and process until very smooth. Add freshly ground pepper to taste and a bit of salt, if desired. Serve warm or chill until serving time.Hints: These variations make this simple spread into uniquely favored purees.1) Add ¼ teaspoon, or more, of ground nutmeg.2) Add ¼ teaspoon, or more, of crushed red pepper flakes. (This may also be added along with the nutmeg, if desired.)3) Add 3 tablespoons of white miso and 3 tablespoons of tahini. FareChase - Search multiple travel sites in one click.
